Shower tray repair at your home in Sidbury

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Our technicians work on ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are chips caused during fitting and edge chips from dropped bottles.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

FAQs for Sidbury

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Devon.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Do you need shower tray repair in Sidbury?

Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Movement when you stand on it

Questions to ask before booking

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What preparation is included

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Sidbury, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
